What is Permanent Makeup?

Permanent makeup, also known as cosmetic tattooing, is a process where tiny pixels of facial ink are implanted under the skin using a tattoo pen or a microblade, to give a permanent effect.  It can be applied to the lips, eyes and eyebrows.

It is relatively pain-free and once performed lasts between 12 months to three years.  During this time it will gradually fade.  Most people require a top-up to their permanent makeup from every 12 months to couple of years to keep it looking fresh and at it’s best.

  • I would definitely recommend Gemma if you're thinking about getting permanent make up. Even if you're not sure get in touch and have a chat with her.

    I've never really worn make up myself but felt alittle enhancement would make all the difference, so I opted for the eyeliner and what a difference its made. it looks so natural, Gemma is brilliant at what she does and so professional.

  • I had lipblush because my lips were so pale.

    I’ve now got a really natural colour and love that I can just apply lip gloss. I would definitely recommend permanent makeup by Gemma.
